CUNY, NYPD Provoke Violence Among Peaceful Student Protesters
CUNY Attacks Tuition Hike Protest
Under the caption of, "Police loving violence against the students and citizens," AnonOps Communications blog posted this observations about how private CUNY security and NYPD are increasingly using violence against peaceful protesters :
Occupy Cuny and allied protestors who gathered Monday at Baruch College to express opposition to CUNY tuition hikes, unfair labor practices, and privatization were met with an increasingly familiar response: violent suppression of their basic right to dissent. Protestors were barred from attending a so-called "public" meeting of the school's trustees and ordered to disperse. CUNY security and NYPD moved in with nightsticks drawn, turning a nonviolent protest into a chaotic melee.

Pepper Spray Students UC Davis
Police pepper spraying and arresting students at UC Davis
During peacefully Occupy Movement, police came in to tear down tents and proceeded to arrest students who stood in their way. Once students peacefully demanded the release of the arrested, a police officer unnecessarily pepper sprays the students to open a path for the rest of the officers. The officer who sprayed the students was UC Davis Police Lieutenant John Pike, japikeiii@ucdavis.edu - (530) 752-3989. Students are also asking that everybody sign a petition, calling for the resignation of UC Davis Chancellor Linda P.B. Katehi for her "failure to protect UC Davis student's First Amendment right to assemble, or even their physical safety."

@NoirHammer Agreed! Well put -- we want OWS to join us outside 120 West 12 th Street Rudin Sales office for Luxury Condos --- St. Vincent’s Hospital Rudin profits People Die and Quinn gets kick back aka compaign donations from Rudin.
She's pure garbage. I just hope the Occupy Wall Street protesters start congregating outside her home. The carriage horses and democracy can't withstand another year of this animal being in office.
